Subject: Re: 22 Dead, 50-60 Wounded
A mass shooting (Sandy Hook) turned me into an atheist. If God existed and let it happen then he is a useless or immoral god.

Regarding God:

"
' Is he willing to prevent evil, but not able? then he is impotent.
' Is he able, but not willing? then he is malevolent.
' Is he both able and willing? then where does evil come from?
" ~ David Hume, Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion

Or, paraphrased:

"
If God is unable to prevent evil, then he is not all-powerful.
If God is not willing to prevent evil, then he is not all-good.
If God is both willing and able to prevent evil, then why does evil exist?
" ~ David Hume
